Reportedly, Tong Pooh, an antagonist from Capcom's Strider franchise, served as the inspiration for Chun-Li's design.
SFV CHUN LI COSTUME MOVIE
I'd have no problem being investigated if it were Chun-Li, in fact I almost want to be. I'm not much of a fan of wearing uniforms myself, but I think girls look good in them. I think the fact that it's a uniform really stands out here. Her hair is tied up and smart like her uniform. Maybe it's because she's new to the force? So cute. It's unusual not to see her in her Chinese dress and pointy bangles. I really love her proud expression, it's so cute. The ICPO uniform looks great on her, and there's a touch of innocence. Here's Chun-Li in here story costume as drawn by Kiki. I probably should have started off with Ryu's costumes, but it looks like I'm allowed to do whatever I want to here, so here's Chun-Li.
